Friends and Neighbors,
Our block party was a big success--and the question we were most asked was, "What can I do to help?"
The first step is to discuss with each other our vision for the future of West Dundee. We are all Dundee Neighbors!
So join Dundee Neighbors for our village-wide kick-off meeting. We can only succeed if we work together. So this meeting is an opportunity for us all to get together so we can all work together!
What: Dundee Neighbors Monthly Meeting
Where: R Bar's upstairs meeting room (101 W Main St).
When: Tuesday, October 21st, 7:00p.m.
*We are proud to patronize a local business that stood with us when we opposed Wal-Mart.
*Sorry, we're all on our own for food and drink!*
RSVP by commenting or e-mailing, and please, tell your friends and neighbors!

E. Dundee Store Closing -- What a Surprise!
Labels:

wal-mart
Why are we doing business with these people? This is unbelievable.
During the West Dundee Supercenter fight, Wal-Mart refused to confirm what they were going to do with the old store if they opened the new one. As if they weren't sure. Now that they got their approval a week and a half ago, suddenly they're announcing closure of the disgusting East Dundee store.
What dishonest brokers and bad neighbors.

What dishonest brokers and bad neighbors.
Wal-Mart officials have confirmed that the world's largest retailer will
close its East Dundee store once the company opens a Supercenter in neighboring
West Dundee.
Though East Dundee officials and residents had speculated on the store's
demise for months, Wal-Mart had not previously given definitive word that it
would shutter the store that has stood on Route 25 for the better part of two
decades.
But village officials said they were told Friday that their largest sales
tax generator would be moving out of town.
"They have now taken the official position that they are going to leave
East Dundee," Village President Dan O'Leary said. "It had been the case where
they had been hesitant to give us a definitive answer."
Though Wal-Mart did not give a specific timeline, O'Leary believes it would
take at least a year for the West Dundee store to open.
Stabbings at Spring Hill Mall

What is General Growth Properties doing over there? Are they taking care of that property?
It is unbelievable that we are being asked to accept a known crime risk in the form of a 24-hour Supercenter in order to help GGP (the "gem" of our village, apparently) when they can't even keep their supposedly "high-end" mall safe from stabbings.
Geez.
Four Teens Injured
Four Cited For Fighting
Sigh.
